Re: predefined dash patterns

Hi Rick

Many thanks for your reply. Yes, I'm currently using type #2, but these are not dots but rather small dashes, at least in my example. Please have a look at the attachment (postscript).

Best regards,
Andre

Hi Andre,

Are you talking about pattern #2 in the list? We have seen at least one case involving the newps/newpdf workstation types and certain pdf viewers (namely Preview.app on the Mac), where this pattern is not displayed. It is the result of the viewing app's antialiasing settings; the dots appear if antialiasing is turned off. I can't recall offhand which viewers exhibit the problem; Imagemagick's "display" view is one that does not.

Does any of this describe your situation?

Rick
